Abt promotes stable, decent, affordable, and inclusive housing in the U.S. by building evidence for effective housing policy, community development, and asset-building strategies. Our evaluation work in the 1970s informed the creation and implementation of the Housing Choice Voucher program, the nation’s largest tenant-based rental assistance program. Today, our focus is homelessness, including management of the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Annual Homelessness Assessment Report. We support initiatives to increase both the overall housing stock and the supply of affordable homes for everyone. All pose complex challenges for policymakers at the federal, state, and local levels.

Faced with limited housing supply and soaring rents and home prices, more people, particularly with low incomes, struggle to find or keep an affordable, safe place to live. Ripple effects of the affordable housing crisis include increasing health challenges, declining educational outcomes, and surging homelessness. Abt’s decades of rigorous evidence-building work with federal, state, local, and non-profit partners—combined with our training and technical assistance expertise—inform today’s efforts to make housing more affordable. We continue to shape rental assistance programs like Housing Choice Vouchers and public housing, policies to boost production and preservation of affordable housing, and initiatives to help make homeownership feasible. Our partners and teams enrich our cross-sector, data-driven approach with first-hand insights, enabling us to advance housing affordability for all.
